Our privacy policy applies to personal information we collect and explains how we handle your personal information.
1. Personal information handling practices
We collect personal information in a fair and lawful way. We may collect personal information:
- Directly from you, for example when you contact us, make an enquiry through our website, subscribe to updates, or apply for a role with us
- From third parties
- From publicly available sources
- Automatically when you use our website, through cookies and similar technologies (see Section 3)
We only collect personal information where it is reasonably necessary for our functions as a provider of engineering products and services, as described on our website www.iconeng.com.au. We may use this information to respond to your enquiries, to provide our services, and to contact you for the purpose of marketing our services or forming business relationships.
2. Use and disclosure
We only use personal information for the purposes for which we collected it, or for related purposes you would reasonably expect.
We do not sell personal information. We disclose personal information to third parties only as described in this policy, including to the advertising and analytics providers described in Section 3, and to service providers who assist us in operating our business and website. Some of these third parties store or process information on servers located outside Australia.
3. Cookies, advertising analytics and the LinkedIn Insight Tag
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to make the website work, to understand how visitors use it, and to support our advertising.
In particular, our website uses the LinkedIn Insight Tag, a piece of code provided by LinkedIn Corporation, to help us measure the performance of our LinkedIn advertising and understand how visitors use our website.
What it collects. The Insight Tag places cookies in your browser and collects information including your IP address, device and browser characteristics, the pages you visit on our website, and timestamps of your visits. If you are a LinkedIn member, LinkedIn may associate this information with your LinkedIn account.
How we use it. We use this information to report on the effectiveness of our LinkedIn advertising campaigns, to understand the professional demographics of our website visitors in aggregated, de-identified form, and to show relevant ICON Engineering advertising to people who have previously visited our website (retargeting).
Disclosure to LinkedIn. Information collected by the Insight Tag is disclosed to LinkedIn Corporation, which stores and processes it on servers located overseas, including in the United States. LinkedIn processes this data in accordance with its own privacy policy, available at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy. Information about LinkedIn’s use of cookies is available at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/cookie-policy.
We do not use the Insight Tag on pages that collect sensitive information.
